What is morning-brief?

A personalised daily briefing that combines weather, news, calendar information, tasks, and saved priorities.

Use it for a morning digest or daily overview with local weather, selected news, upcoming commitments, priorities, and a suggested focus.

It brings the day’s relevant information into one summary instead of requiring separate checks across different sources.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

medium Excessive Agency · line 47
Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00041	$0.00517
Opus 5	$0.00020	$0.00259
Sonnet 5	$0.00008	$0.00103
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00052

Security

Grade A, and why

morning-brief scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Morning Brief

When to use

The user asks for a morning brief, daily digest, or summary of the day
A scheduled task fires (cron-triggered briefing)

Steps

Recall context — call recall and search_memory to pull:
- Location (for weather)
- Topics of interest (news filtering)
- Active projects or priorities
- Personal preferences (tone, length)
Gather inputs in parallel — these can run independently:
- Weather: web_search for "weather [location] today" or use browser_extract on a weather site
- News: web_search for top news in saved topics
- Calendar/tasks: if a calendar tool is available, query it; otherwise mention "no calendar configured"
Compose the brief with this structure:
- Greeting (1 line, time-appropriate: "Good morning, [name]")
- Today's outlook (1-2 sentences: weather, big-picture)
- News highlights (3-5 bullet points with markdown links)
- On your radar (saved priorities, deadlines coming up)
- Suggested focus (1 sentence: what to prioritise today)
Render with UI:
- Use show_metric_cards for at-a-glance items (temperature, top story count, deadlines)
- Use show_timeline if the user has scheduled events
- Otherwise, plain markdown
Save the brief — call fs_write to save to briefs/YYYY-MM-DD.md for later reference.

Style

Brief and skimmable. Total length 200-400 words max.
Time-zone aware. Use the user's local time.
Skip generic greetings ("Hope you have a great day!") — be substantive.
If something failed (e.g. weather API down), note it briefly and continue.

What not to do

Don't generate news headlines without searching first (no fabrication)
Don't include unread emails count without checking — this isn't email triage
Don't be overly cheerful or motivational
Don't repeat the same brief format daily — vary the focus based on what's actually changing

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
